An absurd opinion piece in Politico includes a quote attributed to Governor Palin that is a total fabrication and yet is deliberately written to appear as if it is a legitimate direct quote.

Again I ask, how's that "freedom of speech" thing workin' for ya?
Our side needs more systematic and collective methods of silencing opponents. The Left always has this, with things such at Alinsky's Rules for Radicals, and they already cooperate across their differences to counter us (research Marcuse's "Liberating" versus "Repressive Tolerance," and how they deal with both). The Right is too busy with its individualism, personal ambitions, conflict over internal differences (including widespread misunderstanding of what in political science is actually "the Right"), and blockage of necessary actions by their precious "principles" to do this. This is what has killed them and led to losses over the past centuries.
The conservative/Right will need to decide if it prefers to willing give up a portion of their preferences in order to keep the balance, or hold on to all their preferences and end up losing them all. Most likely, they will opt for the latter, and hope to hold on to some semblance of what they have through their lives, and then pass on to the next generation the loss of what they held dear. They defeat their own cause, but selfishly hope it won't happen until their kids have to suffer the consequences.
